Course recommendations
The fact that professors are always late, was for me at the beginning very confusing. Moreover, I must admit that for all incoming Erasmus students, who are not used to public oral exams, this was quite stressful.

I wish I had known...
I think that I knew what to aspect before coming here. The fact, that I worked before as an au-pair in Florence for 2 month helped me a lot to understand better Italian culture and customs.

Personal comments
My first language experiences in Italy was pretty good. In Poland I completed a four semester course. Moreover, at the beginning of academic year LUISS organised a intensive language course for all Erasmus students, what helped me a lot in every-day life as well as in communicating with professors.
